Efficient Cloud Data Deduplication with Blake3 and Secure Transfer using AES

This research introduces an integrated approach for enhancing file security by combining file deduplication and Advanced Encryption Standard (AES) encryption. The efficient Blake3 hashing algorithm is employed for deduplication, optimizing storage by eliminating duplicate data blocks. AES encryption and decryption ensures strong confidentiality for unique files. The proposed methodology aims to strike a balance between data optimization and robust encryption, offering a comprehensive solution for secure file storage and transmission.
